2013 Tour de Suisse, Stage 9: Bad Ragaz - Flumserberg 26.8 Km

[Netserk]

O'Grady's time on the climb: 37'02

Lemoine: 36'54

EDIT: Too slow

 

[Netserk]

Vrecer 1 second faster on the climb. 36'53

 

[Taxus4a]

O'Grady first finisher under one hour with 57:54

edit: now Cyril Lemoine (FRA/SOJ): 56:57

That means about 50 minutes for the winner, 18 minutes on the flat part and 32 on the climb

[search]

does anyone know why there is a 1 1/2 hours break between 14:00 and 15:30?

 

[roundabout]

Probably to get the cars down. I think there is only one route down.

yep, thanks, that's it, I just had a look in the stage bulletin:

"Bis 16.00 Uhr dürfen die Fahrer von Flumserberg mit dem Fahrrad ins Tal fahren. Ab 16.00 Uhr ist die Talfahrt nicht mehr erlaubt (LIVE-TV Produktion)

Danach ist es für jeden Fahrer (inkl. Velotransport) möglich, die Seilbahn nach Talstation: Unterterzen zu benützen.

Wir bitten alle Chauffeure der Begleitfahrzeuge, der ersten Gruppe, sich ab 14.40 Uhr für die Rückfahrt zum Start bereitzuhalten. Die Begleitfahrzeuge können erst 10 Minuten nach der Ankunft des letzten Fahrers Richtung Flums/Bad Ragaz fahren."

nice kristoff

35;45 for flumserberg is not bad, but normally the big boys would climb this 4 or 5 minutes faster

 

[CraZyCaLL]

I think Mestre is the quickest on the climb now

I think Mestre is the quickest on the climb now

no, he still lost ~50 seconds to Kristoff (1:50 -> 2:38)

Edit: that's from INT 1 to the finish, or is it INT 2 where the climb starts?! Then it's half a minute he lost on the climb.

I could be wrong, but Anton took over 31 minutes in 2008.

Why are there no scheduled departures between 14.00 and 15.30
or is that a mistake in the listings here
